Research

　

From Professor Itoh

 Our research group has been recently working on the following subjects:
1. 　Relativistic Corrections to the Sunyaev-Zeldovich Effect for Clusters of Galaxies
2. Relativistic Thermal Bremsstrahlung Gaunt Factors
3. Neutrino Emission Processes in Dense Stars
4. Transport Properties of Dense Matter
5. 　Enhancement of Thermonuclear Reaction Rates in Dense Stars due to Strong Screening
6. Screening Corrections to the Electron Capture Rates in Dense Stars
7. Origin of Elements and r-Process Nulceosynthesis
8. Evolution of Pulsar Magnetic Fields
　 　
　Relevant references may be found in the publication list. We also provide useful computer subroutines that complement some of our published papers.

　Our philosophy is to lay basic foundations for the research of astrophysics. In this regard we start from the most basic principles of physics to approach various astrophysical problems. It is our great pleasure to find that a great deal of our theoretical studies now forms the foundations of the current astrophysical and cosmological researches.
